F1 Alter EgoPepper - Hot

Hot Pepper Alter Ego as the name suggests is both hot but also sweet. The naturally dwarf habit makes it perfect for use in patio containers and small gardens. The large upward facing fruits are very ornamental, held above the foliage and turning from shades of cream & light purple as they finally mature to bright red. The plant has exceptional branching which results in a much higher yield of fruits than older varieties. Not only does this result in a fantastic crop for use in home cooking but also increases the ornamental appeal. Furthermore, this new variety has been bred to withstand both intense heat and full sun without fruit damage as well as strong disease tolerance, making it longer lasting than other varieties.
